Sorry for the poor image quality. View these strips soon, because I'm going
to remove them after a short time.

Cool! Thanks for posting. I just wish we could save them.

If you have a Mac, as I do, your newsreader should allow you to save
those strips to your hard drive.

Awesome... it's great to see some more of those rare 1954 strips.

Just goes to show that Peanuts continues to be timely, even 49 years after
the fact!

Cheers,
Dave

The range of our projectiles---even ... the artillery---however great, will
never exceed four of those miles of which as many thousand separate us from
the center of the earth. ---Galileo, Dialogues Concerning Two New Sciences
